LSS@Social Media Week: The Science of Social Media

It could be said that most people have faith that Social Media is more than a new hype bubble. While faith alone isn't a bad thing, we plan to add some reason as we explore the Science of Social Media.

Local Social Summit follows on from the successful event in November with this exploration of the Local Social intersection as part of Social Media Week 2010.

Confirmed Speakers:

Dr. Bernie Hogan from the Oxford Internet Institute - Presenting his latest research into the emerging issue of social information overload and effective methodologies for leveraging online interactions and new media in everyday life.

Paul McCrudden - from Imagination & #6weeks fame will share insights and knowledge from how consumers are interacting with brands

Stephen Leighton owner of Has Bean Coffee: http://www.hasbean.co.uk/ - A conversation with the soon to be coffee answer to Gary Vaynerchuk (Wine Library and Crushit)
